| If you smoke you MAY be dangerous |
| Tuesday, January 27, 2009 |
Dr. Dan Hawkins of Governor Beebe's Arkansas Tobacco Prevention and Cessation Advisory Commission has these thoughts about smokers. I think it's time for the Governor to ask Dr. Hawkins to step down immediately with these kinds of views. You should also add TheArkansasProject.com to your favorites.

| more climate change articles |
| Monday, January 19, 2009 |
Please forward this to Governor Beebe so perhaps he'll understand the science of climate change isn't a consensus.

| What global warming |
|
The Governor and his ardent man-made climate change followers WILL be presenting several bills this legislative session to combat man made climate change in Arkansas. Problem is whatever we do will be for naught if none of our neighboring states do the same. All that will happen is that energy prices will go up in our state and many businesses will relocate to other states where they aren't so intellectually challenged to figure out that man-made climate change is a sham. Remember Mr Governor, we don't have enough solar, wind and bio-fuel alternate sources to produce 20% of our state's energy needs. On top of that each of those sources is much more costly than coal. But I forget you believe that coal is the devils resource, destroying all you live near a coal burning energy plant. Mr Governor and all the rest of you that are on the man made climate change bandwagon read this article. I know it probably won't make much difference to those of you in the Jim Jones compound of man made climate change, but please humor me. |

| Tuesday under the dome |
| Tuesday, January 13, 2009 |
So the first broadcast from the Capitol was a blast and a few politicians found out that it's not nice to try to play politics while a talk show is on going. First thanks to all the guests Rep. Bill Sample of Hot Springs. Look for a lot of teeth gnashing over his HB 1093. Any time anyone wants a law that holds illegals as illegals people get upset, esp the Catholic church. To Doyle Webb chairman of the Arkansas State Republican Party. Sorry we didn't get a lot of time today. We will in the future I'm sure of it. To Christopher Horner for great information about the myth of man made climate change. To Rep Lance Reynolds and Speaker Wills, don't try to play games over global warming. We understand you've drank the man made climate change kool aid like the Governor but when there's a committee meeting to be held, hold it and quit trying to avoid actually hearing the other side of the man made climate change argument. What are you afraid of, that another view point will bury your beliefs. You and your ilk are going to cost Arkansans millions if not billion of dollars because of your fantasy obsession. Lastly to you the listener. I will keep the pols feet to the fire and get the news makers on the air so that they answer to you the voter.
